📋 About This Mod

FEATURES

Enhanced HD appearances for ravens and vultures seen around various posts, ledges, and flying in the skies. These new appearances feature upscaled textures using machine learning and a few small edits to compression artifacts. The most noticeable upgrades are the details in feathers, skin around the beak, talons, and eyeballs.

INSTALLATION

Install the latest main file. For manual installation, extract the file to your game’s data folder. For a mod manager installation, install the file with your preferred mod manager.

COMPATIBILITY

Conflicts may occur with mods that modify textures for ravens and vultures. Be warned that vultures are known to have issues with users that have ENBs installed.

KNOWN ISSUES

Some may consider these textures to be excessively large in size and this is intentional because they have little to no compression where possible to avoid artifacts. Submitting a bug report or leaving a comment will help me fix things faster if the mod is not working as intended.

PLANNED FEATURES

Compatibility versions for the mods Wasteland Birds and Wild Animals of Survival are planned for future updates.

RECOMMENDED

Users of HD Raven and Vulture Textures may enjoy my other creature mods Mutated Mantis Species, New Spore Plant Species, Unusual Snallygasters, and Wasteland Birds, or my other retexture mods Rare Spore Carrier Species Textures and Alternate Mr. House Body and Chamber Textures.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 282 endorsements and a massive download count.
  • Simple, focused improvement—just the birds, no bloat.
  • Last updated in 2023, so it's relatively recent for a texture mod.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects ravens and vultures—if you want broader creature texture overhauls, this won't cover them.
  • May not be compatible with other mods that alter the same bird textures—check your load order.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Fallout: New Vegas players who notice the blurry bird textures and want a quick, lightweight fix. Perfect if you're building a visual overhaul and need consistent creature textures without a huge performance hit. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or a complete creature texture pack.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager—no special setup needed.
  • If you use other texture mods, place this one lower in your load order to ensure the bird textures take priority.
  • Make sure you have the game's archive invalidation enabled (or use a mod manager that does it automatically) to see the new textures.
